Crossroads is SF Cinematheque’s annual film festival showcasing avant-garde works from emerging and established filmmakers. This year’s festival opens with the culminating screening of Cinematheque’s Radical Light series and a celebration of the organization’s 50th anniversary. The program includes rarities, rediscovered gems, and restored masterpieces from across the history of Bay Area film. Following tonight’s opening at SFMOMA, Crossroads continues through May 15 at the Victoria Theatre.
